Private Societies And The Maintenance Of Seminole Tribal Integrity, 1899-1957, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
Private Societies And The Maintenance Of Seminole Tribal Integrity, 1899-1957, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the last quarter of the nineteenth century the Seminole Indians of southern Florida were a relatively independent and prosperous people. The small remnant group which remained in Florida following the Third Seminole War (1855-58), numbering fewer than 200, evaded army efforts to capture them, and they faded away into the fastness of the Everglades and Big Cypress Swamp. For several decades they lived in virtual isolation from the outside world, venturing forth only for occasional trading visits to frontier villages such as Miami, Fort Meade, and Fort Myers. During these years they completed the last stage of an ethnoecologic …

The Ambush Of Captain John Williams, U.S.M.C.: Failure Of The East Florida Invasion, 1812-1813, J. H. Alexander
Florida Historical Quarterly
Twelve-mile Swamp lies northwest of St. Augustine between Interstate 95 and U.S. Highway 1, the old King’s Road. The heavily wooded swamp, named for its approximate distance from St. Augustine, is a forbidding area of cypress bogs and palmetto thickets. The swamp has probably changed little since 1812 when, in one violent half-hour, it became the focal point of an extraordinary, undeclared military contest between the United States and Spain.

A Free Facetious Gentleman, Jean Savy, Double Agent?, Aileen Moore Topping
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Spanish minister, Don Joseph Patino, had read other accounts of the alarming growth of the new English colony called Georgia. He recalled the Franciscan friar’s report of a conversation with an Indian chief who had been brought to England from Georgia by Mr. James Oglethorpe. The chief had stated that the English would use his people to capture San Augustin de la Florida. A French engineer who had come to Madrid to solicit payment for past service in the Indies had presented a description of present conditions in Cuba, Florida, and Carolina. He had learned in South Carolina that …

Bernardo De Galvez's Combat Diary For The Battle Of Pensacola, 1781, Maury Baker
Bernardo De Galvez's Combat Diary For The Battle Of Pensacola, 1781, Maury Baker
Florida Historical Quarterly
There are four contemporary versions, three Spanish and one English, of the events leading to the Spanish capture of English-held Pensacola, May 8, 1781. A long line of scholars have written about it, using archival sources in Spain and England. The last of them, N. Orwin Rush, in his incisive and valuable monograph, Spain’s Final Triumph Over Great Britain in the Gulf of Mexico: The Battle of Pensacola, March 9 to May 8, 1781, relied heavily upon the diary of Bernardo de Galvez, which was believed to be available only in its printed version.
Civil War Letters Of Major General James Patton Anderson, Margaret Anderson Uhler
Civil War Letters Of Major General James Patton Anderson, Margaret Anderson Uhler
Florida Historical Quarterly
In a time when patriotism was among the greatest of American virtues, few men pursued it more passionately than General James Patton Anderson of the Confederate army. Born in Winchester, Franklin County, Tennessee, February 16, 1822, he was the son of Margaret Adair and Colonel William Preston Anderson, a veteran of the War of 1812. His maternal grandfather was General John Adair, a hero in both the American Revolution and the War of 1812, and the eighth governor of Kentucky.
The Heavenly Planation: A Seventeenth-Century Mention Of Florida, Nancy Lee-Riffe
The Heavenly Planation: A Seventeenth-Century Mention Of Florida, Nancy Lee-Riffe
Florida Historical Quarterly
During England's civil war in the seventeenth century, British journalism and newspapers got their start. Legions of newssheets were written and distributed. Though some of them ran for several years and hundreds of issues, most were only short-lived ventures. The underground Royalist papers had a particularly difficult time. One of these, of which only three issues have survived, is Mercurius Aulicus (For King Charles II). A weekly published in 1649, its intent is to attack and mock the actions of the new government and to spur loyalty and support for Charles, the son of the beheaded king. In it Florida …
A Love-Mad Man: Senator Charles W. Jones Of Florida, Judy Nicholas Etemadi
A Love-Mad Man: Senator Charles W. Jones Of Florida, Judy Nicholas Etemadi
Florida Historical Quarterly
Following ten years of service in the United States Senate, Charles W. Jones of Pensacola was in a strong position to serve Florida when the forty-ninth Congress convened on December 7, 1885. As an Irish immigrant, he had used his background to aid Grover Cleveland’s successful 1884 presidential campaign. A publicized trip to Ireland in the summer of 1883 and addresses to large audiences of Irish-Americans had channelled votes to the Democratic party. As a result, Jones was regarded as a leader in the party. The inauguration of a Democratic president, whose campaign he had materially assisted, vaulted Jones into …
A View Of Spanish West Florida: Selected Letters Of Governor Juan Vicente Folch, David H. White
A View Of Spanish West Florida: Selected Letters Of Governor Juan Vicente Folch, David H. White
Florida Historical Quarterly
The waning years of the eighteenth century were a time of conflict and turmoil. Europe was convulsed by the wars of the French Revolution and their repercussions were felt throughout the world, including America. The isolated frontier province of Florida, so prized by Spain because of its strategic location to the Caribbean, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Atlantic shipping routes was in an exposed position. Besides the threats from the English and the French, Spanish officials in St. Augustine and Pensacola had to be concerned with the illicit activities of privateers, particularly along the northeast coast of Florida, antagonistic …

Children Of Honor: Letters Of Winston And Octavia Stephens, 1861-1862, Ellen E. Hodges
Children Of Honor: Letters Of Winston And Octavia Stephens, 1861-1862, Ellen E. Hodges
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the Florida secession convention voted in January 1861 to withdraw the state from the Union, it made a fateful decision, the consequences of which its members scarcely understood. The lives of Floridians, white and black, would be fundamentally altered-at first almost imperceptably, then with increasing speed and force-by the action of the delegates. Typical in many ways of those citizens whose lives would be completely altered by secession and civil strife was a young couple from Welaka in Putnam County-Octavia and Winston Stephens.
Turmoil At Big Cypress: Seminole Deer And The Florida Cattle Tick Controversy, Kenneth R. Philip
Turmoil At Big Cypress: Seminole Deer And The Florida Cattle Tick Controversy, Kenneth R. Philip
Florida Historical Quarterly
Indian Commissioner John Collier and Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes, who was accompanied by his wife and son, left Washington, D.C., during the early spring of 1935 to meet with representatives of approximately 600 Seminole Indians who lived on three reservations and on scattered plots of land in Florida. Their purpose was to honor the one-hundredth anniversary of the beginning of the Second Seminole War and to conclude an informal peace treaty with these native Americans. After their arrival at West Palm Beach on March 18, Commissioner Collier requested that officials from the Dania Seminole Agency take them …
Frederic Remington In Florida, Julian M. Pleasants
Frederic Remington In Florida, Julian M. Pleasants
Florida Historical Quarterly
Of the many writers and artists who have glorified the western experience, few have been more singularly devoted, more prolific, or more enduring than Frederic Sackrider Remington. Through his painting, sculpture, illustrations, and literary works, Remington preserved for posterity the essence of a wild and colorful epoch in American history. To a rare and satisfying degree, he captured the Old West-reconstructing its vividness and the vitality of the men, animals, and the scenes that characterized its picturesque history. Other artists drew and painted cowboys, Indians, and the western scene, and many have done so since, but as one critic noted, …

The Tampa Flogging Case, Urban Vigiliantism, Robert P. Ingalls
Florida Historical Quarterly
On November 30, 1935, at about nine o'clock in the evening, a group of Tampa policemen, without a warrant, entered a home at 307 East Palm Avenue and seized six men who were holding a political meeting. Four of the six were members of the Socialist party. All belonged to the Modern Democrats, a new local party that had run candidates in the recent municipal election on a platform containing socialist ideas. Now, almost a month after their candidates had been defeated by incumbents, these leaders of the Modern Democrats were being taken to police headquarters for questioning about their …

Ballooning In The Second Seminole War, Michael G. Schene
Ballooning In The Second Seminole War, Michael G. Schene
Florida Historical Quarterly
During the course of the long and seemingly interminable Second Seminole War, various schemes— most of them impractical and expensive, and sometimes barbarous— were advanced to end the bloody and expensive conflict. Robert Gamble, one of Florida’s most prominent citizens, suggested that the government offer a bounty of $1,000 for every Seminole, whether dead or alive. This reward, he prophesized, “would be sufficient to bring men qualified for such enterprise from every part of the United States, even the trappers from the Northwest.“ The government apparently never gave this proposal very serious consideration. A bizarre scheme that did have official …
The Island Of Florida, Earl R. Beck
The Island Of Florida, Earl R. Beck
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the Spring of 1899 Prometheus, a dignified and respectable German industrial and scientific weekly magazine, featured an article about “Project Ally Sloper,” an engineering scheme of enormous proportions designed to divert the Gulf Stream and alter the climate of North America and Western Europe. German readers were told that Americans, flushed with success from the Spanish-American War, were contemplating spectacular peacetime plans. The periodical proclaimed its “immeasurable confidence” that this project, like all American plans, would be carried through successfully.
Letters From A Journey Through The Federal Blockade, 1861-1862, Thomas Graham
Letters From A Journey Through The Federal Blockade, 1861-1862, Thomas Graham
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Civil War was only nine months old in January 1862, and many persons, North and South, still clung to the hope the war would soon be over. Florida was a long distance away from where the major military and political decisions affecting her future were being made. There had been little activity since the tumultuous early weeks of the war when the Confederacy took over many of the Federal installations within the state. Some of the more important fortifications like those at Key West and Fort Pickens in Pensacola were to be denied to the Confederates throughout the war. …
A New England Emigrant Aid Company Agent In Postwar Florida: Selected Letters Of James F. B. Marshall, 1867, Patricia P. Clark
A New England Emigrant Aid Company Agent In Postwar Florida: Selected Letters Of James F. B. Marshall, 1867, Patricia P. Clark
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the New England Emigrant Aid Company, seeking to revitalize its colonizing enterprises after the Civil War, considered Florida as a prime location for northern settlers, the officers sent James F. B. Marshall on a scouting tour of the state. A native New Englander, former Hawaiian businessman, and paymaster general of Massachusetts troops, Marshall had volunteered for the assignment shortly after his election to the company’s board of directors in November 1866. Before he left Boston for a New York departure on December 18, Marshall was given a letter of instructions drafted by President John Murray Forbes and Vice President …
Cuban Revolutionaries And Monroe County Reconstruction Politics, 1868-1876, Gerald E. Poyo
Cuban Revolutionaries And Monroe County Reconstruction Politics, 1868-1876, Gerald E. Poyo
Florida Historical Quarterly
The intricate historical relationship between the United States and Cuba has traditionally fostered intimate contacts between segments of their populations. Florida has served as the primary stage upon which the two cultures have confronted and coexisted. Although the post-Castro immigration has dominated the attention of those interested in tracing Cuban contributions to the development of the state, it should be emphasized that the Cuban presence in Florida has been equally important during earlier periods.
